The Real Gandhi


I cannot honestly say I had any reasonable expectation that the film would show
scenes of Gandhi's pretty teenage girl followers fighting "hysterically" (the
word was used) for the honor of sleeping naked with the Mahatma and cuddling the
nude septuagenarian in their arms. (Gandhi was "testing" his vow of chastity in
order to gain moral strength for his mighty struggle with Jinnah.)


Any of you ladies wanna test my chastity? I can take ya.

Hmmm, I was actually more interested in seeing how inconsistent his opinions were and how he had been so falsely portrayed by the film, but go ahead and quote the sordid bits!

Sordid?? What could be more wholesome that hot Gandhi action?

If it wasn't for the fact that the world has seemed to have decided to make me chaste whether I like it or not, that would have TOTALLY DESTROYED any remaining sex drive in my body. :)

This is a test of the emergency chastity system

I would have liked to have seen the Ganhdi/Margaret Sanger debate, but hey, I thought it was common knowledge that any movie is made better by scenes with cute nekkid CHYX.

That is my theory of film as well.

*laughing*

Let me know how this works.

I saw The 40 Year-Old Virgin last night. Surprisingly, it didn't suck. There were some very funny moments. Plus there's a hot tattooed altern-boy in there who isn't hard on the eyes, and he takes off his shirt and dances around like a faun at one point. Nice.

No woman can defeat my powers of chastity! I will, however, keep you apprised of any attempts.

I liked The 40 Year-Old Virgin as well. It managed to be vulgar and funny, yet sweet at the same time.

Werd.

And I have a big throbbing girl-boner for Catherine Keener.

Oh yeah. Catherine Keener is quite the hottie. Resisting her would be difficult.

Oh my gosh, she DOES look like Catherine Keener! Wow...what a lovely girl. Thanks for the pic. :)

Totally pointless fact: He's the movie's producer.

Yeah--co-producer. I know, I watched the extra stuff on the DVD too. :)

That would be, alterA-boy, if you didn't already get that. :)

You know, I read this first, and my immediate thought was that you were advocating the fucking of Alterna, a little known Masters of the Universe character. Followed by tea, because fucking a Master of the Universe makes one quite thirsty.

You big nut. This is why I adore you.

I'm going to the gym, then writing, then making a chicken in sherry recipe I've been wanting to try, then going over to my friends' house to ring in the New Year. Hoo ha.

And yourself?

Mmm..chicken in sherry.

Lessee. I'm going to surf the internet obsessively.

Then I'll jump start my friend's car, which has been sitting for months, and prep. it for sale. Then go to the auto body shop and check out paint strippers and primers. Maybe go a walk. Finally, I'll settle in for nice big bowl of popcorn, and a copy of the "Passion of the Jew".

Around midnight, I'll wake my parent's up (who've been asleep since 10:00 p.m.) and wish them a Happy New Year.

Read "Savaging the Civilized"?

If you're interested in how Ghandi and his followers ran their monoculture and religious fundamentalism roughshod over the tremendous cultural diversity that was India, I strongly recommend Savaging the Civilized: Verrier Elwin, His Tribals, & India.
